WELLNESS TIPS
1.Get that vitamin D!
For most of the day you sit at your desk inside. Instead of
doing this, go outside when you have free time. Vitamin D
is important as your body uses this to absorb calcium and
promote bone growth.
2. Pro H2O
Bring water coolers to promote hydration. This can also
increase social interaction between co-workers. You can
also bring water from home if you wish or even eat a fruit.
Dehydration kills productivity in a number of ways, par-
ticularly by causing headaches, contributing to chronic
fatigue and also destroying your attention span, so stay
hydrated.
3.Walk And Talk
Turn meetings into walking meetings. You sit all day, so
why not make your meetings a walking meeting instead?
Research has suggested that walking makes people more
creative. Or, take a break and go for a walk during lunch.
You’ll therefore return to work feeling mentally and physi-
cally refreshed to take on the task at hand.
4. Sneaky Steps
Sneak-in extra steps when and whenever possible: park
your car in the furthest parking spot from the office, stop
by a colleague’s desk from time-to-time instead of
sending an email.
5. Release Some Tension
Stretch in your chair: point and flex your toes, do wrist
circles, stretch your neck side to side, roll your shoulders
forwards and backwards. Just doing this for a few minutes
can help reduce tension.
6. Play Time
Have some fun with colleague’s, whether it is an after
work sporting activity or an organized day of an interde-
partmental tournament. Remember all work and no play
makes Jack a dull boy.
